Well, racked over to secondary today. So far, very nice. I'll tell ya, the biscuit goes a long way. A little dab'll do ya! Pretty bready but that's what Fat Tire is, so it fits.
I really hope nothing happens to this batch. Its really good right now.
BTW--I must say, good call on the fuggles instead of northern brewer, Brewmaster in Training Orr. Bitter, but not harsh.

Yeah, I hear you on the biscuit. ABout 10 minutes into steeping my grains last night my wife called from the living room.
"I know I always say it smells like bread baking when you brew, but it REALLY smells like it tonight. What are you using for your grain?"

Personal observation: Fat Tire goes very well with pepperoni pizza. I'll have to try one of these, haven't done an amber in years.

I just have to finish up my stout and then I can transfer the Fat Tire over to a keg. Drinking that stout (which hasn't lived up to my expectations) is proving difficult.
None the less, I'll have Fat Tire on tap REAL soon.

Yeah, I was curious on the Northern Brewer hops... I like hearing others comments about likes and dislikes on certain styles...
I will have to try the recipe with Fuggles to see for myself.
